A URINE COLLECTION DEVICE

摘要

A urine collection device (50) comprises a collection means (55) to collect urine voided, advantageously midstream, by the user. The device (50) has an outlet means (51) integral with the collection means (55) to direct urine out of the collection means (55). Both the collection means (55) and the outlet means (51) are operable moveable from a flat storage configuration and an expanded in-use configuration. The device (50) also includes one or more resilient means (53) which are so biased to cause the device (50) to move from the storage to the expanded configuration. The resilient means (53) can include an elastic band or resilient strips (14) located on either or both of the collection (55) and outlet means (51). Tabs or gloves can be included as part of the device (50) in order to reduce the risk of the user's hands becoming contaminated by urine.
